I want to thank Mandy Parten for the use of her pictures. Jonathan and her were behind me and managed to get quite a few pictures of me.

This was my son Jack wheeling on Little Shepherd Trail between Putney and Cumberland, KY.

Steak and eggs for breakfast. We decided to bring my Blackstone grill and it was a great decision. We grilled stew meat and scrambled eggs w/cheese. We had that 3 of the mornings we were there.

The view from the top of the helipad. The mountain in the distance on the other side of the valley is where the Little Shepherd trail runs.

Al was the smart one and parked over in the shade off to the left, out of view.

Saturday trip to the rail shed. This has always been something we do every year. We do it in honor of Aaron "FlexdXJ" Thompson that we lost far too soon. He was on the first ride years ago when we first found the rail shed. IllianaXJ had heard that the trail was pretty washed out from recent rains and as you can see below, it was. A special thank you to Jonathan that spotted me through and helped determine the best line. The five in our group didn't have any issues after that.

This is the coal tipple in Brookside just down from the rail shed.

Jack pointing to the damage on the rail shed trail caused by a tree partially blocking the trail. We need a saw next time.

$6.00 in quarters later, my XJ was pretty clean, revealing the boo-boos from the trip.

Mark's YJ on the left and Carmine's on the right. They look amazingly similar.
